9. Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project
at the time of this application: See attached plan. This small, unnamed tributary is a first
order stream with a drainage area of 0.017 sq mi. The watershed is mostly wooded with a
small second growth pasture along the left bank from the culvert to the South Fork New
River (SFNR). Some logging activities have occurred in the past on the mountain slopes in
the stream's headwaters. Presently, there are no ongoing _agricultural, livestock or forestry
practices occurring at the site and it is part of a 50 acre conservation easement
Page 2 of 9
10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The 325 if
of stream from the culvert to the SFNR is the proposed work area. Five sites have been
identified totaling approximately 325 if in need of bank stabilization. All work will be done
from the top of the bank by a trackhoe with a hydraulic (preferred) or mechanical thumb.
Methods to be used are bank reshaping with the use of root wads and log vanes and
revegetation to provide long-term bank stability (see attached plan). In addition to bank
stabilization, an existing, undersized 12" CMP culvert will be replaced with a 36" CMP
culvert capable of carrying high flows during storm events. The new culvert will be placed 1
ft below the normal stream bottom so that aquatic organisms can move freely through the
culvert. Care will be taken to put out groundcover mixture and straw or coconut fiber
matting as each phase of the project is completed. No soil will be unprotected for longer than
24 hours.
11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work: The purpose of this work is to repair and stabilize
the eroding of this small, unnamed tributary to the South Fork New River on the Langer
property. This will improve gquatic habitat and reduce the amount of sediment entering state

LANGER STREAMBANK STABILIZATION PROJECT ON AN UNAMED
TRIBUTARY TO THE SOUTH FORK NEW RIVER,
ASHE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA
Prepared for the National Committee for the New River, West Jefferson, North Carolina
July 19, 2008
Prepared By
Foggy Mountain Nursery, Lansing, North Carolina
Introduction
The National Committee for the New River proposes to stabilize approximately 325 linear
feet (If) of eroding streambank through it's River Builder Program on an unnamed tributary to
the South Fork New River. The site is located on the Langer property in the Todd - United
States Geological Survey Quadrangle (Figure 1). Site visits were made on January 16 and July
10, 2008 to determine the type of measures needed to stabilize the eroding streambanks. This
proposal outlines five sites (Figure 1) that need to be addressed and the methods to correct the
problems.
Project Description and Methods
This small, unnamed tributary is a first order stream with a drainage area of 0.017 sq. mi.
The watershed is mostly wooded with a small pasture along the left bank from the culvert to the
confluence with the South Fork New River. The 3251f of stream from the culvert to the South
Fork New River, proposed work area, is a class C entrenched stream type (Rosgen 1996). Above
the culvert the stream is a class B stream type (Rosgen 1996). One cross-section survey was
collected that is representative of bank erosion problems at the site (Figure 2). Four sites have
been identified totaling approximately 1001f in this 325 if reach in need of bank stabilization.
Methods to be used are bank reshaping (Figure 3), root wads (Figure 4), and log vanes (Figure
(Figure 1), or a combination of these methods, and revegetation (Table 1). In addition to bank
stabilization, an existing, undersized 12" CMP culvert will be replaced with a 36" CMP culvert
capable of carrying high flows during storm events.
Once a bank repair site has been completed, disturbed soils will be reseeded with a temporary
and permanent ground cover seed mixture and covered with straw and/or an erosion control
blanket. Disturbed streambanks will also be planted with native shrub and tree species (Table 1)
to provide a deeper root system for long-term bank stability.
Conclusion
These bank stabilization measures will reduce off-site sedimentation and provide in-stream
habitat for aquatic resources in this small, unnamed tributary. Establishment of an improved,
vegetated buffer will provide long term bank stability, filter out pollutants, and provide cover and
food for many wildlife species.
